GOOD NEWS. . . . The PICTURE UPLOAD FUNCTION IS WORKING !!! The tech folks at the parent company have been able to remedy the issue. You can upload pictures once again. Thank you for your patience.
I hope so. But if the synchronization is off wouldn't that cause it to run poorly. I just want to make sure I am doing the sync part correctly since I have seen a few different ways to do it
The compression is between 140 and 145 on all 3 cylinders. So far I swapped the spark plugs with Champion QL77JC4 and gapped to .04. I checked spark on all 3 cylinders with a tester set to 11 mm. I rebuilt the fuel pump and replaced all the old fuel hoses with brand new hoses, fuel filter, and...
I did a little reading and I found 2 methods link and sync. One is to sync the throttle plates, Line up the roller with the mark on the cam, and then using a timing light to check timing and adjust by rotating the cam on the threaded connector. Then once on the water use the idle screw to set...
From what I understood from the manual is that you advance the throttle until the throttle roller starts to move along the cam. I did ensure that the roller lines up with the first mark on the cam when they meet. At that point the timing should be TDC. Thats what I have done on this motor. When...
I think I might have fixed it. My fuel lines were leaking so after I fixed that and ran the motor on muffs this afternoon and it seems fine now. I did follow the manual to link and sync and my timing is at TDC as the carbs start to open. I have the idle set to around 850 RPM currently but will...
I purchased a 1983 Evinrude 70 HP motor last year and have been trying to get it running in good condition. I have tried out the motor running on the water and it has bogged down as im applying throttle. I have pulled the carbs a few times to get them clean, rebuilt, and the floats set...
